Dumping would resume if duties expired on oil country tubular goods from China, says CBSA
Tribunal will now determine whether the expiry would likely result in injury to Canadian industry
In February 2020, the Canadian International Trade Tribunal initiated an expiry review of its order concerning the dumping and subsidizing of certain oil country tubular goods originating or exported from China. The order, issued in March 2010 and renewed in 2015, imposed anti-dumping and/or countervailing duties on these goods.
Following the Tribunal’s December decision, the Canada Border Services Agency (CBSA) initiated an expiry review investigation to determine whether the expiry of the finding is likely to result in the continuation or resumption of dumping and/or subsidizing of the subject goods.
The CBSA’s investigation has now been completed and the Agency has determined that the expiry of the order is likely to result in the continuation or resumption of dumping and of subsidizing.
The Tribunal will now conduct an inquiry to determine whether the expiry of its finding is likely to result in injury to the Canadian industry and will issue its decision by December 10, 2020. Anti-dumping and countervailing duties will continue to apply to the subject goods until that date.
